  1. Engaging 21st century STUDENTS in PhysicsLearning: WHY, When, Where & HOW

  2. The FUTURE OF Our UNIVERSITIES: Crisis or Opportunity? Political Financial Pedagogical Administrative Technological

  3. The FUTURE OF Our UNIVERSITIES: Crisis or Opportunity? 9,750,000 Results! We recognize there is an issue, yet we are trying to fix a new problem using old approaches

  4. Technological implications on university education The concern about how we teach and what is the role of technology in education is not new! But the access to information and the way we read and share it has tremendous implications on our students and on us. It also changes our students’ expectations from us!

  5. How Do we engage Students in Intro Science courses? Why are students often disengaged? Who are our students? What can we do? How can technology help? What science do we need to teach them? What are 21st century skills?

  6. Implications for physics Teaching and Learning • The role of lectures/labs/tutorials • Multiple ways to engage students • Creative use of technology: learning any time anywhere • Technology for increasing collaboration and access • Making science learning relevant to the students

  7. Bridging the Gap Between Theory and Practice • The efforts to teach science differently aren’t new • The importance of critical thinking for all isn’t new either • Despite exploding university enrollments, STEM illiteracy is ubiquitous • How do we create PER-Informed Physics Teaching Resources that make a difference? October 4-26, 1957 STEM LITERACY – 13, 100, 000 Results in 0.21 s.

  8. Igniting Student Curiosity with Science Chemistry teacher Neil Dixon showed that science in classroom doesn't have to be boring… How can we help students appreciate the intellectual excitement we experience while learning science? Why did we become scientists or science educators?

  9. PER INSPIRED PHILOSOPHY Of our book The book has to: Be coherent and comprehensive, yet not to attempt to cover it all Be based on our knowledge about physics learning Reflect modern science and Canadian contributions Be of interest to our modern students: relevance and style Be engaging – intellectually, emotionally and visually Take advantage of technology – for learning and collaboration
